I went to the doctor last week as I was having knee and foot pain. He signed me up for physical…read moretherapy for the knee and suggested arch support in my shoes for my feet. Getting old is not for wimps lol;). New things popping up all the time! I decided to stop in to 1st Place Sports to check out their walking shoes. Kelly escorted me upstairs where they had a huge selection. I told her I was recommended to try Hoka's by several friends. First, I stepped on a machine to scan my feet to see what would work best for me. She suggested the Hoka Clifton 10 with inserts. I tried on a few different styles and selected my favorite (what felt best when walking). I purchased two pair of Hoka's and inserts that I can switch between the two pair of shoes. I walked out in my new shoes and by the next morning my feet pain was gone! After dealing with it for nearly three weeks I was so relieved! And grateful to Kelly for her help and excellent customer service! I'll be back for another pair soon when new colors are released. Since now I'm starting over with my walking shoe collection.

It was recommended that if I could be there at opening I would be seen right away. I showed up early and got some steps in while waiting. Makayla helped me with my selection. I came in wanting a walking shoe and was told the advantages of using a running shoe as a walker, better breathing. control. She brought me 3 pair of shoes to try on. 2 brands were represented. The first didn't need an insole. She listened to my questions about all 3 pair. Now time will tell if I made the right choice I bought a pair of Hoka with a medium insert. I will definitely return and hope to be served by her again.

They have lots of Gators stuff (BOO!) but their FSU selection is decent but a little lacking (just like the Noles on-field performance the past couple years) so it would be cool to see them add some more Noles stuff. They also have a selection of items for other teams like Bama, UGA, UCF, USF, etc. as well as some other pro teams. This store isn't huge but they pack a lot into their space and it's near Bono's if you want to stop for lunch or dinner. I'll come back again when I'm in town and want to get some Jags or Noles stuff.

Nice tackle selection but operations suck. Palm Valley…read moreOutdoors )PVO) is the worse Bait Shop in JAX area, in my view. Early morning staff is often late, their hours differ on weekdays but No sign posting hours, They do not post a sign when they are out of bait. Also the Bait quality typically suck. Shrimp Quickly dies off. They need a better system to refresh water & keep it cool. The other day I waited 45 minutes for them to open only to find out they were out of Bait ! I avoid them whenever I can Until they straighten out operational mgmt.

I have always wanted to get a retro fish and finally had one shaped by Mike Whisnant. First off…read morethe board looks amazing - green resin tint with glass-on wooden fins. I bought the board to ride instead of my standard short board when the waves were too small for me to care. Yesterday I didn't have enough time to go home and pick up my short board so I decided I'll just take the retro fish for a spin on some fun waves. The waves were rib cage high and feathering on the outside. The board really impressed me on how well it rode in quality waves. With 30+ years of shaping experience Mike Whisnant know what he's doing.

FREE KITTENS!!! I…read moreordered some parts for a bike I was restoring not too long ago, and after eagerly watching my front porch like a hawk for three days (I hate porch pirates), I heard the tell-tale sound of a box truck's squealing brakes pull up outside. I opened the front door just as the truck drove off, but there on my porch was a big brown box with my invoice professionally affixed to the outside. I grabbed my much-anticipated package and took it inside to open it up. As I carried it to the kitchen table though, I thought it felt a little heavy and it seemed to be off-balance as though something was rolling around inside. I set it on the table, and then heard a definite scratching from the inside of the box. Thinking it might be a rodent, I went to the garage and grabbed some gardening gloves. I cut the tape on the top of the box, opened it up and then saw four adorable little kittens with their eyes barely opened! What a surprise! I picked one of them up, and the little guy weighed practically nothing. It appeared that they were all from the same litter - two orange tabbies, a calico and an all-black kitten. As I tried to wrap my head around how they got into the box, I noticed a folded sheet of yellow legal paper, and it read "Thank you for being a loyal customer. We appreciate your business, so please accept these kittens as our Thank You gift to you. We look forward to serving your bicycle needs today, and in the future. Ed." I have to admit that I have never received free kittens for being a loyal customer before, and it really made my day! The level of customer service has always been exemplary, but this little added touch of four small bundles of joy in appreciation of my business is over-the-top awesome. I will cherish these kittens always, and will tell everyone who asks about them about the wonderful people at Planet! You guys rock!
